    Especially since RDNA2 (at least for PC) is built on N7+ EUV

    Agreed, it seems the first-gen Polaris didn't have such features enabled. After all it's AMD firmware, so it would make sense to be broken.

    96 ROPs would mean either a 3 SE x 2 SA or 2 SE x 3 SA setup. The latter would work as 6 x 7 WGPs with 2 symmetrically disabled.

    That would be interesting.

    Isn't the same that forced Hynix to officially disprove it?

    They said the specs were incorrect. So, it lets a lot of doors open...

    Exactly. If it is "fake news" why not just ignore internet rumors and let the facts speak for themselves once the product is available.

    Only if you're grasping straws. Naturally SK Hynix only comments on their part of the image, but the chances that the specific part is fake and rest is real are slim to none (meaning if the GPU specs like CU counts etc are correct, it's more likely just a lucky guess than actual leak)

    Twice as many GFLOPS served by only 50% more bandwidth? I remain skeptical.

    I agree. I'm just saying, if a big navi is true (with the rumored specs), they can say "well, it was 100mhz lower so yeah we denied it !". I mean, why did they even comment on a rumor like their are a lot every day.

    The same reason Intel commented on *that* S|A article.

    2x GFlops and 1.5x BW, you are talking about TITAN RTX and RTX 2070.

    (Answering in the more proper thread for this)
    I have no clue why it's repeated over and over again, but at least in this thread there seems to be several users pointing out quickly that it's the same fake

    it might be fake, still, there are GPUs from AMD listed for this year that are going to crush consoles so badly. The future 5900XT for instance.

    https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-5900-xt.c3481

    As I said in another thread, the naming is quite conservative or repetitive, are they maybe remembering better times when AMD GPUs ruled the world? The 5900XT existed in the mid 2000s already. (edit: my bad, it was nVidia's)

    There is also a monster, the 5950XT. https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-5950-xt.c3487

    TechPowerUp puts those up based on rumors, not because they are real, there's disclaimer about it on the pages "Based off of speculation/reddit and other sources online."
